OVERVIEW
The VGA output on your computer is designed to drive
signals a few feet away. So what do you do when you need
more than one monitor so people at different locations can
see what’s on your screen?
Use VGA Video Splitters. They let your computer drive
signals to monitors, projectors, or LCD panels located up to
250 feet (76.2 m) away.
The applications are endless: making sales presentations,
training employees, or providing everyone on your shop floor
with the most current information. And the 300 MHz of band-
width provides clear images at resolutions up to 1280 x 1024.
Our VGA Video Splitters divide the screen signal coming
from the source, then amplify and distribute that signal to
monitors located wherever you want them.
Our splitters come in 2-, 4-, 6-, 8-, and 10-channel versions.
If you need more than 10 monitors, you can link two or more
splitters together. For example, attaching one output channel
